Strangest Christmas Gift Evah!
« on: December 24, 2008, 11:12:20 PM »
Well, Mrs. Tantal and I had decided that we weren't going to get each other anything for Christmas this year.....mainly because we pretty much have everything of importance. Well, I break the rule and get her a little something, but nothing major. She then says "well, I got you a little something too." So, she hands me this bag that feels empty. I go through the tissue paper and find a small white stick with 2 parallel blue lines across these little windows. Apparently the real gift will be here in about 8 1/2 months. Just thought I'd share. :-)
Never demand that which you are incapable of taking by force, DUmmie.

That's the nicest "Someone peed on somthing and gave it to me" story I have ever heard also.

Usually those don't end well. :-)

Congrats :)
